Hi,

it seems that libtorrent (i.e. the rasterbar flavour) is becoming the 
de-facto standard bittorrent library under Linux, so I'd like to 
suggest to switch from transmission-gtk (which uses its own library) 
to some alternative using libtorrent, e.g. deluge-gtk.

furthermore, I've read but not yet confirmed that transmission clients 
are being blocked from some trackers, because of severe bugs in 
libtransmission.

Cheers,
Fabian
